Leonardo DiCaprio refutes Brazilian president's claim that he funded Amazon wildfires.
Reuters reported that Bolsonaro appeared to be commenting on disputed social media posts that WWF had paid for photographs taken by volunteer firefighters and used them to solicit donations, including $500,000 from DiCaprio. The claim is the latest in an effort by Bolsonaro to divert blame for the disastrous fires from his government, which scaled back enforcement against illegal logging, mining, and ranching.
A tract of Amazon jungle is seen after a fire in Boca do Acre, Amazonas state, Brazil on Aug. 24, 2019."So what did the N.G.O. do? What is the easiest thing? Set fire to the forest. Take pictures, make a video," the president said, adding that the fund"makes a campaign against Brazil, it contacts Leonardo DiCaprio, he donates $500,000."
